Hi! As some wit once said, I'm not a book collector - I'm a book accumulator.  I used to keep everything I bought if I thought I might want to read it again; but now that all the shelves are not just full but double-stacked I realized I am never going to be able to re-read all these books plus the hundreds of new books I want each year. So I'll try shuffling the inventory a bit more. I love science fiction and mysteries, and there's so much in each genre to read that I rarely manage to branch out much.  I can read the average paperback in three to four hours if I'm not interrupted.

In addition to reading, I have a huge garden both ornamental and vegetable, I can and preserve food and enter my goods in the local fair, we raise a few sheep and chickens, and ride our horses as often as we can while holding down full-time jobs. I also own a little website devoted to gardening mail-order catalogs, which I don't update as often as I'd like.
